Does anyone have a piece of bootable media (TK50, TK70, CD or old 
hard disk) that they could sell, rent, loan, etc.? I have tried 
everything at my disposal to boot my VAX 4000-300, without success, 
as described below. I believe that post-1.42 -current is needed for 
that model.

     Thank you and best regards,
     M J Dowden
